130 new regulatory agencies founded under the obamacare legislation. today, the cost of compliance with government mandates, including medicare billing and hipaa, just those two, account for a significant part of any hospital's overhead expenses. multiply this by 100, yet -- under the yet to be administered mandates and cost of care that will have a dramatic increase just to keep the doors open and lights on for every hospital. the human resources costs of providing health care coverage for hospitals whose number one asset is a qualified and trained employee will increase as the obamacare employer mandate is finally implemented just a year from now. finally consider the fees or taxes imposed on hospitals in 2014. just weeks away. earlier this week, a hospital c.e.o. from my congressional district reported that, quote, we're going to have to pay close to $200,000 next year as will every hospital, end quote. hospitals will see other various fees, including a $5,000 levy so the government can do research on the effectiveness of hospitals working within th
